  • Peter Thiel's Argument Analysis

    164 Words  | 1 Pages

    When Peter Thiel, the founder of PayPal and Sillicon Valley Entrepreneur, addressed the Republican National Committee he gave a speech to convince the audience to support Donald Trump. Thiel’s argument supported Aristotle’s claim that your argument must appeal to the uneducated. Thiel’s audience is considered uneducated because when the camera panned to the crowd you could see people cheering with Donald Trump signs, and according “The Atlantic” more than 60% of Trump supporters do not have a college degree. One of the ways Thiel catered his argument to his audience is by saying, “Americans get paid less today than ten years ago. But healthcare and college tuition cost more every year.”

    Jonathan Edwards version of God was very aggressive and unforgiving. Insult after continuing insult, this does not seem like the Jesus Christ with the wonderful forgiving spirit. With the words, “God hates you,” repeated multiple times throughout the sermon, it is truly hypocritical that the God described as forgiving and loving of all would say “I hate you,” every five minutes. I personally feel like this is not the way God would like to be described, and that God would much rather liked to be showed as a forging and gentle spirit.

  • Glenn Beck's Argument Analysis

    890 Words  | 4 Pages

    In my initial oral exam I combined both Glenn Beck and his co anchor's argument into one to better fit argument and doing so made it easier to form a structured idea of the fallacies involved using Toulmin’s model but also made identifying specifically Glenn’s fallacies difficult. Though it can be assumed that he agrees with the statements and analogies his co anchor was making as he used it as a jumping off point for his own final argument. Parts of the co-anchor's articulation are present in Glenn’s argument but in the exam I didn’t identify only Glenn’s ideas in the model. Specifically the grounds, warrant and backing were weakened as they were more closely related to his co anchor’s arguments than this own. Identifying this error Beck’s argument based on the Toulmin Model (Foss 131-133) is as follows:

    Discussing religions and worldviews can make for riveting philosophical and intellectual dialogue, but when they take an aggressive turn, is it still productive? Or is it now counter-intuitive? As our American presidential candidates fight for their ability to be the next leader of our country, it’s inevitable to see religion be involved in discussions, from marriage equality to the presence of planned parenthood in government spending to whether or not “Islam hates us”. Candidates’ views on these deeply personal topics directly correlate to the votes they will be receiving in the primaries and later on, the actual election.

  • Rhetorical Analysis On Free College By Bernie Sanders

    210 Words  | 1 Pages

    Free College Tuition From Bernie Sanders Bernie Sanders believes that college tuition isn’t in the interest for our country’s future. Bernie Sanders states “It is insane and counter-productive to the best interests of our country and our future, that hundreds of thousands of bright young people cannot afford to go to college” (Bernie). Bernie Sanders’ point is that many of the talented people in our society may not be able to pursue their dreams or pursue their desired job because they and their parents can’t afford college. If Bernie Sanders is right that many Americans can’t afford to go to college, as I think they are, then we need to reassess the popular belief that FAFSA and other scholarships will considerably lower the price for college.
